for me that is a feature likely to go. If you define a dynamic ctor, it
should return an object of at least the type that the ctor is for. I do
not care about subclasses or such, but I don't like Date result = new
Date() to fail.

Apart from making the code easier to
read & safer, it also allows compiler optimizations (and in the absence

same effect).
Something I want to mention here: The Groovy compiler current
